What’s it all FORS ? Sussex Transport Are Awarded the SILVER Accreditation!

The Fleet Operator Recognition Scheme (FORS) is an accreditation scheme that aims to improve fleet activity in London and throughout the UK and beyond.

As a FORS accredited company, not only are we now recognised as a forward-thinking operator, but accreditation will give us that all important competitive edge. FORS is graduated into three levels enabling companies to demonstrate to customers and other companies, progress through the FORS journey.

According to the FORS website, ‘’Silver and gold FORS accredited companies are high-quality operators that are committed to becoming safer, greener and more efficient. Gold is the highest FORS award, followed by silver and then bronze. To progress an operator must meet all the requirements of lower awards. Progression to silver or gold accreditation is not mandatory but may help complying with more rigorous procurement conditions. Silver requirements are based primarily around putting in place the systems for improvements, and gold requirements primarily involve enacting those improvements. Silver and gold FORS operators shall provide an annual submission of data to their certification body for review. Variations in approach to a requirement are acceptable provided that they meet its general ethos and are agreed with the certification body’’

We are very proud of our progression from Bronze to Silver today.
